How do your kids handle torn paper projects? Some of my kids get a little bit frustrated . . .

You cracked me up with what you posted on Kristin's blog! Some of my kiddos would cry and did when we did our torn paper apples in September!
Ahhh, threats! That is why our Penguin on the Shelf is coming to visit on Monday! I would love for you to come check out my blog and grab TONS of my *freebies*!
Your blog has been such an inspiration to me and your kiddos are blessed to have such a creative and passionate teacher!

can I just say how much I love doing craftivities??? im so frustrated at the lack of art these kids are exposed to- at home AND at school. art is such an important medium for kids to be able to learn and grow from. it uses a part of the brain that just doing math and reading and writing never hit on, and can make them smarter! This is also my soap. k. for music too….again, the arts are so important and yet the arts is what is getting cut from education…even our kinder and 1st grade teachers are saying what a hard time they are having trying to fit it in with all that has to be taught. ugh! I get it…I do. but this is why I love ur stuff (let's not forget the geometry quilts!)…bc u show how to incorporate the art. lol…sorry. my ranting is done now lol.
I love how you put your kids faces in the projects. Just adds a certain something! 🙂 We did the snowman tear art, but I had them tear each little teeny tiny piece to fill one snowball, then the next…it took several days. I'm surprised my kids didn't stage a revolt!!!!!
LOVE!!!!!
